Protect Our Clean Energy Law

Passed by Washington voters in 2006, I-937 has ushered in a renewable energy boom, helping draw more $8 billion in investments to the state, creating thousands of jobs and generating nearly $150 million in public tax revenue, especially in more rural areas. It remains our state’s No. 1 means of meeting its official greenhouse gas-reduction targets.

The Washington State Senate is about to vote on a slew of bills to slash I-937’s goals and standards.Tell your state senator to protect our clean energy law and our clean energy future. Vote NO on Senate Bills 5089, 5090, 5094, 5430, 5735 and 5842!

I-937 was passed by the people of Washington to cut carbon pollution, diversify our energy mix, and create clean energy jobs. The law has succeeded in each one of those goals. We cannot weaken the renewable energy standards, and I urge you to please vote NO on Senate Bills 5089, 5090, 5094, 5430, 5842 and 5735. Each one of these bills would be a step back for clean energy in Washington.

I-937 is Washington’s best existing climate policy, reducing carbon pollution more than any other program through 2020 and beyond. Because of I-937, more than $8 billion has been invested in clean energy projects, producing nearly $150 million in public tax revenue -- much of which is directly benefiting rural communities. We must uphold I-937 and start planning on how to strengthen the law after 2020.

Please vote NO on rollbacks to Washington’s successful renewable energy law, and please support constructive efforts to build on our clean energy legacy. I support the Clean Energy Choice Act (HB 2073) and recommend that you use its framework for advancing Washington’s clean energy economy. Thank you for protecting clean energy and opposing Senate Bills 5089, 5090, 5094, 5430, 5842 and 5735.
